Guided trip
Hello everyone! My name is David, but my friends call me Chaac, I am a traveler at heart, since I was 18 years old I started travelling as a hitchhiker, in trailers, cargo trucks, or whoever would take me, that is how I discovered most of Mexico, I know spectacular places (waterfalls, beaches, restaurants) as well as some of the people who live there, and of course the pros and cons of the different regions in Mexico. Upon your arrival in Mexico City, we will stay in an Airbnb near downtown, where we can find some of the best tacos in town, and amazing places to enjoy a drink, like "Garibaldi" Nightlife, Reggae, rock, and more. About the trip! - The next day (Friday), we can find an amazing breakfast nearby to recover strength, and walk through downtown to appreciate, the "Templo Mayor" museum, where we will find the Ancient " Tenochtitlan Teocalli"(Pyramids); After that, we will drive to the south of Mexico City to "Xochimilco" where we will board a "trajinera" and sail through the lagoons, in the middle of the city. But before that, we have to make a quick stop in "Ciudad Universitaria" to have a picnic in their gardens and appreciate the Juan O´Gorman murals. - On Saturday, we will prepare ourselves, to drive in the direction of Chacahua, Oaxaca. This is a Nature Reserve where the rainforest and the ocean go together, also, we can find the natural bioluminescence of the lagoon. It is a small town away from the noise, where the chill vibe of the beach will capture us. Their traditional life next to the beach is the perfect way of relaxing. - On Monday morning, we will drive to Zipolite, where we can have a good chill time, and explore the same time Mazunte another town nearby, where we can find a turtle museum-reserve. This area is full of a good vibe, international food, and cozy bars next to the beach where we are able to swim, read, and surf. The locals offer tours to explore the sea and find dolphins, turtles, and reefs. - On Thursday morning, we will drive to ¨San Cristobal de las Casas," Chiapas, is a wonderful town 2,200ms up in the mountains surrounded by the jungle, where we can find the impressive Sumidero Canyon and the Colonial Architecture surrounded by great gastronomy and more to discover through their stone streets. - On Saturday morning, we will drive into the jungle to the Nature park of "Las Nubes" in Chiapas, where we will find the most amazing waterfalls, and practice rafting and a diverse variety of ecotourism sports. Including Speleology - On Monday morning we will drive to our last stop, but not less impressive, "Bacalar" near Riviera Maya, this place is famous for its 7 colors lagoon, chill vibe and local scene will take us into a small town, where we can find amazing food, a relaxed vibe, and to explore the diverse activities that the town brings, such as Kayak, Yoga, or just chill in the lagoon, with a great seafood BBQ to close our memorable experience Requirements, and important data: * Bring your inner explorer to discover the real Mexico, full of good vibes, and all the willingness to an adrenaline ecotourism tour, activity fees aren't considered in the trip budget considering aren't expensive most of the time. * All accommodations will be arranged depending on the distribution of the joining groups (couples, friends, etc..) combined groups may share the same rooms, or Airbnb's To summarize, what is included in the price? - Accommodation - Transportation (Car rental) - Final BBQ meal Discover the best things to do in Mexico!

5/5
The most exciting trip of my life! This trip was a perfect blend of all the good things that Mexico has to offer. David created such a perfectly crafted journey with the right amount of nature, beach, party and cultural activities. His skills and personality as a trip guide was making the entire journey even more pleasant. As a local he would introduce his friends and use his language skills to create the best experience. As a great driver he managed to bring us from point a to b safe and quickly. He was always making sure I was doing great, my wishes were being met and arising problems were being solved. All the accommodations were selected wisely in a great spot for the activities. I am so happy I went on this trip and discovered the true soul of Mexico with David. Already excited to come back for next the trip.
